Chris Evan may be
best known forbattling super villains, but he wants the
world to know that he has more to offer than muscles and action. “I’m a pretty
romantic guy,” the star confessed to
HELLO! at the premiere of his directorial
debut
Before We Go on Wednesday in Hollywood.

Although we are sure
that would make the ladies swoon, he continued: “I don’t necessarily limit the
notion of romance to people. I think I have a romantic relationship to art, to
music, to nature.” The
Captain America star even admitted that the most
romantic gesture he’s ever done was for himself. He explained, “I went camping
once for three weeks by myself, which is very romantic.”

Chris, who has been
previously been linked to many famous women, including
Jessica Biel, Sandra Bullock and Minka Kelly, spoke about if working on this film had given him any
desire to settle down with someone special. “Oh god, I couldn’t even think
about my own life,” the 34-year-old shared. “I had no life during this movie.
This movie was all about the movie and that was it.”

In the film, Chris
plays a musician who tries to help
Alice Eve’s character get home after her
purse is stolen in New York City’s Grand Central Station. The pair wander the city
streets together and romantic feelings develop between them. Alice spoke
eagerly of her admiration for Chris, both as an actor and director. The star,
who also has
Dirty Weekendcoming out with Matthew Broderick, said, “It was
interesting because Chris had a very clear vision of what romance was to him
and what love was to him, and we kind of followed that.”

While Chris may have
no time for love in his real life, Alice is a few months shy of celebrating her first year as a married couple on December 31 with Alex Cowper-Smith, whose wedding was featured in the pages of
HELLO! magazine. She opened up about the best part of
wedded bliss: “The comfort. It’s nice to have somebody to go home to.”
